Motorhelix Audi RS6 Avant 2019 in Merlin Purple... arrived today and it was starting to get dark when I took the picture so I'll try to get some better pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

Couple of recent purchases.
Kyosho Alitalia 131 and AutoArt Z4MC.

Maybe of interest to Pereldh, as we appear to have similar interests in both 1:18 and 1:1

Now that does look fantastic and a great colour. Never even heard of Motorhelix before.

This is my small 1/18 collection, been collecting for just over a year, but have probably bought and sold at least 30 more.... too addictive!

Also have 1/12 premiumclasixxs Alfa 33 Stradale and 1/12 otto e30 M3 DTM on the way.

Ooooh, do I spy a BBR Ferrari 512BB LM there?

Amazing model, if so.

The Alfa prototype is one I regret not buying when it was on offer a few years ago.

Indeed it is, I also had the blue European University version but sold it a few months ago. It is a superbly detailed model.

Received my Autoart Skyline silhouette today. I am blown away by this model and it's details. Imo it could well be be AAs best diecast.

Pics with my Spark Jager BMW E21 320 turbo Gr5 because 70s/ 80s racers are so cool.

Mr. Adds, that Alfa 75 Imsa... About the only 1:18 75 to get really, amazingly. And with the 155 DTM and Giulia Q... Sweet!

[Guiddy]

So from a pure model engineering point of view this is probably the finest model I own! As per the real car the work that's gone into this is amazing!
It weighs 2.5kgs and as with CMCs models is mostly metal. Whereas any other manufacturer may construct the chrome parts from chromed plastic, this has plated metal parts through out.
The smooth action of the working sunroof is amazing!

It's a copy of the car Elvis owned and his version was kitted out with a blue velour interior and even a TV! In 1970! Enjoy the pics...
